How mental states impact gut health
A circuit between the brain and gut influences the gut flora and thus regulates the immune system
Aging impacts immune function, increasing disease risk. A study of immune cell specific aging clocks using scRNA-seq from 1,081 individuals (18–97 yrs) revealed monocyte age acceleration in COVID-19 patient & immune rejuvenation in CD8+ T cells post-BCG vaccine

Single-cell immune aging clocks reveal inter-individual heterogeneity during infection and vaccination
Nature Aging - Immune system function changes substantially with age. In this study, the authors present single-cell transcriptomic aging clocks revealing immune-cell-specific age acceleration that...
New study provides evidence a little-studied virus called HPgV 🦠 may be present in brains 🧠 of people with Parkinson’s disease and linked to disruptions in immune function and brain pathology. The virus was detected in brain tissue from patients with Parkinson’s disease but not in control samples.
